Such a classic Marvin Gaye sample right here. Personally, I do not think this version is nearly as good as Jay’s version, but Talib does his thing for sure.

When I first heard Trademark on Spitta’s joints I was like Ok, here we go again…a crew member trying to ride the coat tails yet again and he is wack. He has just officially made me change my mind after hearing the flow on this joint. Horns do not match the beat at all, but cool track none the less.

Trademark Da Skydiver “Super Sticky ft Smoke DZA”

Real dope record and almost had me fooled as if it was Kanye on the hook. This is from a young up and comer who can sing, rap, and produce as he displays all of the above on this joint which is off the mixtape, The Somebody-ish Nodbody.

Been a while since we’ve heard anything from the homie Blu. This beat has to be one of the most annoying f**ken beats, I’m not even sure why I’m posting this actually..well for the sake that Blu is dope, don’t say I didn’t warn you though.

Blu “Keep It Going ft U-God”

Seems like a lot of cats are going in on Wiz’s single, good to see that. “I’m from the hood where grandparents are 35” Hit the stream for more humor via Crooked.

Always good to see new music out from Aloe, as he is one of the more slept on artists in the game probably because he is more soul than hip-hop. Either way his music is great, check out his LP that dropped one month ago, Good Things.

Aloe Blacc “The Dark End of the Street”

I think AZ can still rap, but without some better production and real strong product push this next album of his will just be swept under the rug. I hope that’s not the case as he is one of my favorite and underrated emcees which most people would agree. Would be cool if Pete Rock and Large Professor came outta the woodwork for the homie.

AZ “Your World Don’t Stop”

I have been seeing this kid’s name pop up quite a bit and this is the first real spin I’ve given him. It bangs thanks to 9th and dude can spit.
